Our latest dates fuiniaii the most ani mating accounts of the successes of th Greek over their barbarous foe. An of f.wl report by the Admiralty of Hydra and Spczia, elated 5th July, states the loss in the Turkish fleet at Scio, to be, the. Admiral's, Ship of 130 guns, blown up three other Shins of the Line burot and sunk, seven Fngutes wrecked near Tscbesme, and the greater part of their crew drowned, in consequence of a vio lent panic which seized upon the Turks. The Creeks had also captured 10 vessels out of the third expedition which sailed from Constantinople on the 4th of June, and the remainder were blockaded near Tschesme. A letter from a respectable merchant at Vienna, dated 2-Hh July, states, th it the Creeks had carried Aru by storm, in addition to having taken the Castle of Athens, but that many of their best officers had fallen in the assault on the former. Only three important fortresses in the .Morca remained in the hand of the Tuiks. and the whole of them had been treating for a surrender upon the turns terms gtanted to the garrison of Napoli di Romania, but the Creeks over joyed ai the victory obtained over their fleet, refused compliance. No injury had been done to the crops bv the wet weather in Tlngland, and thev were so ubundant as to produce a decline in price. ruAscr.. 1 he French paper state, that the King of Prussia is expected in Path, and a ve ry general opinion is entertained there, that arrangements have already bern en tered into with tho French Covcrnmcnt for the free passage of ' Austrian ami Pruntian Am through France and Spain, and that extensive contracts have been made to supply them with hay and other requisites cm their march. If this be cor rect, und it certainly ugrces with the un contradicted assertions made by the Left Side in the Chamber of Deputies, jioth irifj could he more natural than that the Prussian Monarch should repair to Paris, in order to be within reach of his army, whilst the dangemos experiment of its pistinjr through the exasperated people of France shouU be carried into effect. In the debate in the Chamber of Depu tii on Tuesday se'noigbt, General Foy, in alluding to this report, said : Von have been told of the Holy Alli ance the Holy Alliance ! we only know it through the tributes which it has im posed upon us, through the injuries w l.irh it has inflicted upon our coun'rv !

TIIF. ITkKS. Accounts from Constantinople confirm the account of the death of the Captain Pacha, whose ship was blown up. The Russha troops have withdrawn from the Turkish frontier, so that all apprehen sions of a war have fur the present sub sided. The Turkish fleet was gallantly wit icked by 200 Creeks, and being de stroyed, the victors have thus pained the d( mi'.ion of that part of he . It wi' enable them to lurnis their foes most effectually, bv cutting off supplier and cooping them up in their blockaded ports. The Admiral of the fleet of the P. cha of 1rvpf, who had effected a landing in Ci.r.-ln. has pot lotitr had c nuc to rejoice in bts pood fortune, for his fleet consisting of S3 vessels having been dcfea'rd br Uie Crocks, he ha been forrrd to retire, with the toss of f( men, leaving I w hind him m;tn Torses and military stores of every de l iption. These are the effects whic h n:,tur.d.v result from the butrherv of Scio.

The editor of the National Gazette says, " we learn that the Prince Hoyal in Bi az.il has proclaimed himself F.mfieror of IraZit, and that the olhual document has been received in Philadelphia." LTRKACOA. A correspondent, under date of 17th August, writes as follows : " The Span iards appear to have declared open hostil ities aij.inst our country. The brijj Ab eona, of New Orleans, arrived three days ago from Puerto Cabello, in ballast, a p'i.c to the Hercules Spanish man cf war she is condemned -and reports that (lie Hercules has captured two other ves sels; one from Philadelphia, the other bom Baltimore So far do they carry their hostility against the United States, (;ut the Spanish bijrate Leber, of 41 nuns, recrntjy at this port, had the impu deuce to declare, that she was hound on a cruise for tho United States frigate Ma cedonian, which vessel is supposed to be in ti.is vicinity. Clod grant she may fall in with her, and the Don give himself an airs. He will have his day lights knock ed out before he is aware of it." A. Adv. rouio liico. It appears by recent accounts received at this pott, via St. Thomas, thit.the cap lure of the Spanish privateer Pancheta, by the Crampus, has excited the ire of his Donship, the Governor of Pito Hi co, who, it is state ', has imprisoned ..II our citizens at that place, and lai.l an em bargo on all our Merchant vessels. One would suppose from this occurrence, th-t the privaicciint; ststrm was the particular ohj.-ct of the care of this urathful and !-i!?it?rrsieJ governor.. If so, we can he at no loss to account for the number of the pirates, which continue to infest the est India seas. From the late pro ctedir.js in the llr'uish Parliamenti it seems, the Fn;lish government, instead of ukintr measures to sweep the ocean of these lrce b,-oter, has entered into ne gotiations with Spain on the subject; in the expectation no doubt, that Ferdinand will do all that is necessary to cure the evil- The specimen, which the j;over.nor of I'oito l'ico has pivrn, of the disposi tion of the constituted authorities of Sp.in, to interfere and put down these robbers, evidently shows, that little or nothing, tending to the safety of com merce, is1 to be looked f"r from these ne poMations. Something more substantial than paper must be made use of; and if those who have the control of these mat ters in the islands belonging to Spain, do not resort to etTu'mit measures, but, on the contrary, cpmlv protect the plunder ers, it is incumbent on our Koveriimcnt, without rrgai d to the diplomatic policy of other nations, to act with piompiiicss und vigor; and to emplot force to extermi nate this horde of robbers. The incalcu lable mischief done to our trade, imperi ously calls for this, and the law of nations justifies the measure. X. Y. Conu.Llv. LIMA. f Rn, THK SlTHSlL I SflLI.li.lM t . Lieut.

A new weekly paper, edited by a learn ed Hindoo, has been recently published in In.lia,, p the ttcngalee language. It is the first attempt of the kind ; but the first and second numbers' were purchased with SO much avidity, that both were out of print- 'Tho subjects on which they treat ed were tho liberty of the native press, and the tight of trial by jury. The title of the pa ier is as singular as its publica tion is ncvel. It is entitled Sungt.aurf Conmuddi' or the Mm of Intelligence.' The Sun and the Star are by no means un common titles ; but this is the first in stance we have known in which an editor has even impliedly admitted the exist ence of linar influence as applied to him self, althuli the fraternity are often wil ling enot gh to acknowledge the very great extent to which it prevails over others. Charleston Courier. The London Courier, which has asked by what right anv interference in the do mestic concerns of the Turkish F.mpire could be attempted, and why the lurks should be more obnoxious to a crusade than any other European nation, Iu4 in a manner answered and refuted itself in the followin remarks made in the number of the 29th Julv t " Let us suppose France and F.ngland to unite with Hussia, Austria, and Prus sia, in demanding from the Porte the re cognition of independence claimed by its revolted subjects. What would infallibly ensue ' Long before a shot could be fn ed in support of this demand, there would be few surviving Creeks to accept their freedom, when obtained for them. The, it sul'cd pride and exasperated fanaticism of Mtissulmen would prepare such a page of blood for future hislor, as could scarcely be paralleled in the annals of past massacre and slaughter." This is saying in effert that it would be better for the Greeks M be. all butchered piecemeal, than to lisk the danger of giv ing them help. TRADK V illi THK CANAD S.

Menas, may he hourly expecled at this port fiom Jamaica and Havana. Hy thi vessel the editors of the New-York Ga zette have received, via Havana, Jamaica papers to the first till. 'The Iphigenia arrived at Kingston on the 23th July horn Sierra Lforc, hcirre she sailed on the 26th of June. She was one of the fleet which raptured a number of slave vessels on the Coast in the month of .ptl last, an arrount of which was published in last Monday's Gazette. From the statement of this Kfl'air in the Jamaica Courant of the 26th July, it appears that one of thr captured vessels (the Spanish schooner Veaman) was upset and lost on her pas sage from the Riser to Sierra Leone for adjudication, and all on board, consisting of two cfHccrs, tipht or ten seamen, and 380 slaves, perished. Another schooner, called the Vacua, when taken possession of, had a lighted match hanging over the spare niagaxine hatch, placed there by the crew before they jumped overboard to swim to the shore. It was providentially discovered by ne of the Iphigenia's men, who put his hand under the burning wick, und removed it. She had a large quanti ty of powder on board, und if the match had taken effect, 7S slaves, together whh the officers and men front the Iphigctiia, would have been blown up. A vessel arrived at Kingston on the 25th July, in eight days from Chagtes. An embargo had been laid in that pott upon all vessels, for the purpose of sending the troops, lately occupying the garrison of Quito, to the Havana (hurtle, From the Ncw-Vork Sentinel, Sept. IT.

It will also be seen, that cases are reported as happening out of what is called the infected district, nnd which cannot by any possibility he traced to it. It is also manifest that rases of fe ver have occurred viliich have never been reported to the Hoard of Ileahh. 'These circumstances united, are evidence that the disease is rapidly extending through out the city. The number of deaths of the prevail ing fever, up to this day is 94. This is about half of all the rases leportc.l. 'The other half may he supposed to have recov ered j hut as many of them were tcn.oved from the city as soon as they sickened, wo have no authentic account of the ter mination of their lotnpl.tint, and only tea or twelvo recoveries are really known.. The sick generally die on the fouith day.
